Likely to Create a Sensation.

Two years ago little food plant was discovered south of the equator which was called Mnxia Nerve Food. They have favored it into a luscious beverage. The doctors say it will re- move the appetite for liquors, nervous and mental exhaustion, and the terri ble, tired nervous feeling 90 prevalent among women; and gives them double powers of endurance 0n cents worth per day. There is an immense excite ment over it all over the country. 1t is pronounced harmless, and it does not lose it's effect from long use. The druggists say it's sale is enormous. It is only 50 cents a quart bottle.

the fire became pregnant with the strength of Siva, and then tho fire, bearing the strength of Siva, irradi- ated it even In the day as if the suns rays had entered into it, and then this strength was thrown into the Ganges, and the Ganges, by the direction of Siva, placed 1t on Meru ia the hole for consecrated fire. Thero 1t was guarded by the attendants of Siva, and growing for thousand years, the six faced boy was produced. Then. hav- ing drunk with it's six mouths from the six beasts of the krittikas ap- pointed by Gauri. it grew very greatly in few days. Here. in the mean- time, the king of the gods, being con- quered by the Asura Taraka, fled to the almost inaccessible summits of Meru, and gave mp the contlict, And the gods, along with the Rishis, went to the six faced god for protection, and he, guarding the gods, was sur rounded by them. When he heard that, lndra, thinking that his king dom would be taken away, was dis
 
 fought the boy, and from the body of the boy, when struck by his thunder bolt, there arose two sons named Sakha and Visakha, of unequalcxl power Then Siva came up with his own offspring, and the other sons who surpassed lndra in power. and com. mandcd them not to fight. and de- clared this: You were born to kill Taraka, and to protect the kingdom of lnda therefore do what you ought to-" Then the Nritra slayer being pleased. bowed before him at that mo- ment and undertook the conservation of the boy as general ot his army. Then when lndra himself raised the pitcher, his arm became numb. and he spoke sorrowfully, but Siva said to him. w ishimg for general of your army, you did not worship the elc- phant faced god, hence tn, obstacle has arisen, therefore make proper sac- rifices 10 him." When the husband of Saci heard that, he did so. and his arm was released, and he properly per formed a consecrating ceremCny for n general of his army. Then, not long after, the general killed the Asuta Taraka, and the gods were pleased at the successful issue of their unlcrtak- ing. and Gauri in the possession of a son. So, O queen, Ganesa not being worshiped. even gods do not obtain success. Therefore, sacrifice to him when you wish prosperity.

Regular Literary Habits.
Phiiatelphia News.

All literary men who accomplish much and mantain their health do their work in the morning and do it every morning. It is the daily task, performed morning after morning all the vcar--carcfully conscientiously persistently--that tells In great re- suits But, in order to perform this task in this way, there must be rcgu- lar habits of sleep, with which noth- ing shall be allowed to interfere. The man who eats late suppers, attends parties and clubs, or dimes out every night, cannot work in the morning Such man has, in fact, no time Co work in the whole round of the hours. Late and irregular habits at night are fatal to literary production, as n rule. Tine exceptional cases arc those which have fatal results upon life in few years.
 One thing Is certain. No great thing can be done in literary produc- tion without habit of some sort, and we believe that all writers who main tain their health write in the morning The night work on our daily papers is killing work and ought to be fol- lowed only few years by any man. A man who follows literature should always go to his labor with willing mind, and he can only do this by be- ing accustomed to take 1t mp at regu- lar hours. We called upon preacher the other day-onc of the most elo. quent and able men in the pulpit of this state. He was in his study, which wa4 out of his house, and his wife simply had to say that there was no way by which she could get at him even if she should wish to see him herself. He was wise. He had his regular hours of labor, which no per son was permitted to interrupt. In the afternoon he could be seen in the morning never. A rule like this is absolutely necessary to every man who wishes to accomplish much. It is astonishing how much man may accomplish with the habit of doing hi- utmost during three or four hours in the morning. He can do this every day, have his afternoons and evenings to himself, maintain the highest health and live life of generous length.
 Good habit is a relief, too, from all temptation to the use of stimulants. By 1t mans brain may become just as reliable producer as his hand and cheerfulness and healthfulDess which it will bring to the mind will show themselves in all issues of his mind. The writings of thoss con:ssnrc-sne- ous geniuses, Scott and Byron, illus trate this point sufficiently. One Ia all robust. health. the result of sound habit; the other is all fever and irreg- ularity. What could Poe have done with Longfellow's habit!

Third Paper.

Pards, Joe had no sooner straight ened himself up after the jail delivery than he began to look after some other things to devote his reformatory spirit in making better.
 There was no church in this coun- try, which was to Joe's fancy. In his own mind he resolved that the church of his earlier years must be established in this land, but how? Where the regular Sunday preachin' was held was in an old rickety shanty on the outskirts of the ranch. The parson was an old man, the congregation poor and the. usual collections for the heather poorer than the widows mite. The morality of the deacons and large share of the members was not just such as pleased Joe. Too many of them were often found sitting in the judges stand and timing the fastest horse under the wire at horse race. Others fooled away their time at pool tables, or indulged in a "quiet game" where "square hand" had no show when 'jack" was always trump and dealt from the bottom of the pack by experts in the business. And the Doreas' sewing societies, whose consti- tuition and bylaws required the mem bers to fill box of clothing for the heather every two weeks, had dwin- dled down to a full fledged gossip club. Joe asked the president of the society one day "How old their organ ization wasp She said "Two years. :" "How many boxes of clothing have you sent away?" She replied: "We have long been troubled to decide which tribe of heather we should donate to first, but have finally chosen the Patagonians, and have just been to the carpenter and ordered our first box"
 Joe's faith in the salvation of the Patagonians from such a source trem- bled just a mite. Pards, that's just what's the matter nowadays every where, and right here in Slushy Gulch you can find men and women who say they have religion, but who know very little of the foundation-stones Of Christianity. It's religion to throw babies to alligators; to climb the stone steps at Mahomedan mosque on bare knees to go down to Jericho and pass by a poor wou .Ided man; to sprinkle holy water; to confess to a man; to starve for forty days and be a glutton for three hundred and twenty five. But it's Christianity that tells us to love little children, to be true worshiper at heart, to sympathize with the sorrowing, to be pure and clean in life, to acknowledge the only wise God, to be temperate in all things always
 After many weary months of hard work, Joe had the satisfaction of hav- ing gathered enough shekels to build a little church, and when completed, took great pleasure in seeing fewer horse races, and more judges attending service; the s'quiet games" lost their interest for many; the saloon keepers attended with greater regularity, partly owing, perhaps, to the fact that the common council had lately pat whisky license at twenty five hundred dollars and beer at two thou and dsiiiars year.

Written for The Arkansose TrGUeIsr. A SIMPLE STORY SIMPLY TOLD.
BY BRUKE MOT.

In city life there is a charm
 For some, but not for me; The honest toiler on a farm
 Is of temptation free; No "hell hole" there, nor pit nor snare Laid for unwary feet The farmer breathes the balmy air And dreamless sleeps and sweet. Town a farm upon the hill,
 And buildings in repair, No man have I to help me till,
 l have no neighbors there; Nor do nelghbors want, for
 Live but for those love, And shall thus live until die And jOIn my friends above. In spring rise up with the sun
 And jocund go a,field, And, when nay daily task is done, l heartfelt praises yield To Him who doth in thunder speak, Then, without doubts or fears, My humble cot eager seek
 And sleep till dawn appears. To plant, to SOW, to reap, to mow, When earth Is parched and hot, Is trying work, I will allow,
 But 'tis the farmers lot; And rejolce 1t is my fate,
 For tho 1t brings not wealth, It brings not cares most des perate, But strength, content and health. I feel it is joy ful thing
  And when hear the birds loud sing, And see them skim the air, Within my heart with them joy, And thankful praises give For happiness, without alloy
 'Tis sweet, 'tis good to live. When comes the blessed harvest time, My lads, tanned healthy brown, With shouts the bending fruit trees climb, And rain their treasures down; Potatoes are dragged from theIr nest; The lowly turnlp torn From mother earth; without protest The waving fields are shorn. The rustling corn is ruthless slashed, The beets are made to bleed, The golden pumpkins, mud hes nlas he'd. From clinging vines are freed, The shining nuts from prickly burrs Fall to the leaf -strewn ground, The mottled partridge frightened whirrs, The boys laugh at the sound. In winter, when the chill winds blow, And drifts pile high and higher, What care for the winds and snow, When, seated by the fire, Contentedly 1 muse or read, My outdoor chores all done, And not thing to do or heed Until another sun. And when, at last, the birds come round And sing their songs again, Once more blow and fit the ground, And plant, and SOW the grain, Tho harvest time seems far away, Tho summer days are long, There's One my labor will repay My faith in Him is strong. "Oh, tiresome life'' hear you say, "The same things OCT and o'er." Not so. I something learn each day Each day adds to my store Of knowledge. An observant eye Will learn, without disdain, m Made not one thing in vain.

FOR CITY OFFICES.

The Struggle for the Possession of
 Vacant C0mmlssionerss ShOes-The
 Republicans 50 Nominate Their men
 TO-N1ght.
 Hugh Daley, chairman of the Republican
 aldermanic caucus, has called meeting of
 the Republican board of aldermen to be held
 this evening for the purpose of placing In
 nomination president of the board of alder
 men, member of the board of public works and police and fire commissioner. The Democrats will also hold caucus soon. The new Court of Common Council will hold it's first meeting the first week in January, when
 the above named officers will be elected.
 The prospects are that Alderman Richard M. Sheridan will be renominated as presi- dent of the board of aldermen.
 | In the board of fire commissioners there is | a triangular fight on the Democratic side There are several who aspire to the office, | however. Redmond, the present Democratic | commissioner, is z candidate for reelection. | His friends claim that he will be nominated. Alderman Pohlman of the Ninth ward, who retires with the board of '87, thinks he
 could properly fill the office. So does ex- l Alderman Brennan of the Twelfth ward. Of | the Republican nominees the present incum- | bent Charles Farnam. seems to be the favor l ite. Alderman Wines, who goes out January | 1, and Fred Farnsworth of the Eighth ward,
 who was recently defeated by Loren H. Stan nard, are said to be looking for nominations. In the board of police commissioners there | is considerable wire pulling being done over
 the vacancy that will be made. Samuel
 Johnson, the present incumbent, is candi- ! date for renomination, and he thinks he can fill the office aceeptably for another three years Frank s. Andrew, who was unsue- cessfu1 in his run for the mayorship some | time ago, is said to be candidate for Com missioner Johnson's shoes
 In the race for road commissioners the | names of Commissioner Gilbert. the present | cumbent, William J. Atwater and Major 1 Todd are prominently mentioned on the Re l publican side. There seems to be no opposi- tion to the reelection of James Reilly to his
 present seat on the Democratic side of the board.
 Some vigorous canvassing is being done l for those young men who aspire to the assis- l tant city clerkship. MT. Edward L. Cahill,
 the present incumbent, will probably be the Democratic nominee. Reporter Pickett, of
 the Palladium, is mentioned as possible Re | publican nominee.
